    I remember once being mildly excited about Fortuna years ago. Needless to say, I've been saying that for a while and didn't say anything about him in the time between then and being mildly excited.

    I think Lomo busts him up and frustrates him. Wide/sweep UD and good chance of a late mercy stoppage. Fortuna will throw some wild swings (misses) and the odd connect here and there that I do think it will be an entertaining one sided fight.

    Martinez is also a Haymon fighter so that part isn't exactly a big deal.

    Good to see all that stuff thawing though

    I preferred the mooted Rocky Martinez match up.

    Lomachenko scythes through Fortuna without breaking a sweat.

    Salido was cheating, lmao. Cry me a ****ing river.
    Loma having that close of a fight against salido under any circumstances and not hunting that rematch down to fix that is unacceptable.

    Loma isn't what he could be, because he accepts defeat, even though I had Loma up a round still thought his name would win him even rounds so I was more than shocked at the cards.

    Why has he not paid him anything just to get him in the ring to shred him is very telling.

    Fortuna leaves his chin open when he throws. Against someone as accurate as Lomachenko, that's bad news. Lomachenko by UD.

    I think the GRJ fight prepared Lomachenko for Fortuna's handspeed.

    Salido was official, Martinez was offical. Just wait at least till tickets are on sale till we consider it happening. Martinez and Fortuna are both stylistically made to order, but despite Fortuna's greater power I think Lomachenko looks even more impressive against him than Martinez. Martinez can box a bit, wouldn't take as many chances, and would probably get outboxed and outsped to a decision loss. Fortuna will come at Loma from all angles with guns blazing. If he doesn't land something hard he'll expose himself for Vasyly to counter and sharpshoot like a speedbag. Pretty good as a first test at 130, but only see Loma dominance. There's better fights for him I hope we see soon after, Salido 2, Vargas, Uchiyama, Gamboa.
